Logan Stankoven, the player Carolina acquired from Dallas as part of a package for Mikko Ratanen, made it four goals on 11 shots and the end of Wedgewood’s night 59 seconds later. Avs defenseman Cale Makar flubbed a clearing attempt from near his own goal line, and it left the Hurricanes with a jailbreak rush.

Brent Burns is chasing the NHL's ironman record, but the Sharks legend is about to play his 1500th game with the Avalanche.

The Carolina Hurricanes showed interest in Minnesota Wild forward Kirill Kaprizov. They contacted the Wild in the second half of September, after Kaprizov rejected the $128 extension offer.

Makar still has two years left on his six-year, $54 million contract, which carries a $9 million cap hit. The blueliner will be eligible to sign an extension in July 2026, but speculation is already building about what his future deal will look like.

Blue Jackets head coach Dean Evason took his club to task after their disappointing 4-1 loss to the Avalanche on Thursday.

The Minnesota Wild acquired forward Oskar Olausson and sent defenseman Kyle Masters to the San Jose Sharks in exchange on Friday. Olausson, 22, will report to the Iowa Wild of the AHL.
